"Fall Forest" - Available
Discription: I have three compositions to do and I'm doing them on a half sheet split in thirds vertically.
Composition 1It must follow 10 guidelines Which are:
1. Sketches - Two 4x6, varied point of view
2. Value studies - Two, differing value options
3. Mood- Fall
4. Color - Analogous compliment
Example:
So this is one of Monet's paintings, it's an analogous compliment. That means that it's colors are next to each other on the color wheel (analogous), up to five colors next to each other supposedly. AND it has a color across from it on the color wheel making it a complement. So to look at Monet's work, he has... blue, green, yellow, as his analogous colors and red as his complement to the painting.

3. Mood - Fresh, living
4. Color - Six tone chord
I can't recall who painted this but it is a "six-tone chord" which I'm starting to question as far as being an actual term. We all know about complementary colors... blue and orange, green and red, purple and yellow. When these are next to each other they look their brightest. It only makes sense that you can do a paining with two or three of these pairs. This painting is made up of about 6 complements making it a "six-tone chord" green and red, blue and orange, and a very small amount of purple and yellow.

(Sorry about the bad picture quality)
Composition 3
It must follow 10 guidelines Which are:
2. Value studies - Two, differing value options.


3. Mood - Drama
4. Color - Quadratic chord
This is one of Sargent's paintings. I admire his watercolors so much. They are so impressive, I would suggest that anyone reading this should google search John Singer Sargent's watercolor. This paining of his is a Quadratic chord. This means that the colors are chosen from a rectangle shape, here is an example of this type of formation:

Basically two compliments are chosen but they must have only one color between the two chosen from the same side. Sargent's painting is done from... orange, violet, yellow and blue. (With this painting I did the chord close to what's selected on the wheel)
